Vintage 2025

A near-perfect growing season with nature providing ideal conditions for our vineyards. Although the 2024 Winter was mild, it provided excellent rainfall, with 185 mm falling throughout June, July and August. This balance of warmth and moisture created an optimal environment for vine growth and fruit development.

Budburst commenced in the second week of September, and favourable Spring weather conditions contributed to uniform berry growth with deep green canopies to power the ripening.

Veraison commenced on 3 January, earlier than the last few seasons. Warm, dry conditions in Summer with very little rain posed challenges from a water perspective. In a first, all three of our vineyards, Tuerong, Balnarring and Red Hill were being picked at the same time. Thanks to the tireless work of both the vineyard and winery teams, we were able to pick and process all parcels of fruit at the ideal time. All varieties exceled with the early season and dry and warm conditions. The winery was full for the first time since 2021, with yields returning to long-term averages.
